Thanks for the compliments guys. I really like this guy too.

Nice fish. Short bodies or not. Those are beauts! Good luck with the breeding! What do you feed your GT's to get color like that?

Mostly, I believe its just a result of clean water and healthy bodies. Since I've had them, I rotate Hikari cichlid gold, Hikari cichlid bio-gold, Hikari Tropical carnivore stix, and Hikari cichlid sinking excel.

Really nice looking GT. Has some really nice color but definitely a short body. I have been seeing allot of that at the FLSs I frequent in and around the IE socal.

I don't think it was something that was done purposely. I bought 5 all at the same time from Petco. When they were all juvenile you couldn't tell he was a bit short. But now that he has put on some bulk its more noticeable. Some of the pictures exaggerate the 'short' look as well.

Agreed! I saw what appeared to be 3 short bodied White Saums today. Great fish regardless!

I can't find Hikari cichlid sinking excel anywhere, everywhere I looking the they are have Hikari cichlid floating excel. I wonder where can I find the sinking Excel?

Actually, now that I look it up, I don't feed sinking Excel. It's sinking cichlid gold... sorry.

my female gt loves bloodworms when she eats them she brightens right up.

I bought a group of Green terrors in August. 5. I ended up with three males and two females. This is the alpha male. The number two male is in a different tank. I moved him out because he (the number 2) is actually larger than the alpha male and I didn't want them getting too physical. Good timing too because a female is now showing interest in him. I'll have to take the others back to the pet store soon. Anyway, enough babble.
